Chapter 485 The battle is over
Even as they talked, their eyes never left the direction where Lei Xiu and Lie Zhao were.
Lie Zhi didn't say much about the Longclaw Clan, and Le Zhi didn't have time to ask any more questions either, because the two people over there started to move.
In the aerial battlefield, the purple light transformed into a sharp blade, rushing straight towards Lie Zhao.
Instead of dodging, he took the initiative to meet him.
"choke……"
A protective shield of golden light enveloped his body, instantly revealing itself the moment he was attacked.
This time, the two did not separate immediately upon touching each other. Their distinctly different lights merged and canceled each other out, mixing into a dazzling white light that illuminated the dim night sky.
The white light shone down, and even with their eyes closed, they still felt a burning sensation in their eye sockets. Everyone either turned their heads or raised their hands to shield themselves, temporarily avoiding the glare.
Only Lezhi remained focused on the two people on the battlefield, unmoved by the white light, even as everyone around him turned their attention away.
His gaze shifted, and suddenly met a pair of familiar eyes.
It was the pair of eyes on Lei Xiu's wings.
Lezhi's eyelashes trembled slightly; those eyes always felt so familiar, no matter when you looked at them.
His attention did not affect the course of the battle.
The white light dissipated, the clashes shifted, and after a brief separation, both sides regrouped.
Then came the second, third, and fourth encounters...
Each time it was faster than the last, the flashing lights and shadows were like the dazzling orbs of light overhead when you arrive at a late-night bar.
However, these are two spheres of light, vying for sovereignty.
The night is both long and short.
He ran out to check the situation after noticing the commotion, his mind kept in a state of high excitement due to the battle, but his body was inevitably stiff.
It wasn't until dawn broke that everyone realized their bodies were stiff from not moving for so long.
They had done almost nothing, yet they were already exhausted. The two who were still locked in fierce combat must also be at their physical limits.
As the sun gradually rose, its rays illuminated their faces inch by inch.
To everyone's surprise, although their foreheads were glistening with sweat, their eyes were still bright and alert, showing no signs of fatigue.
The battle that lasted all night made the two of them even more energetic.
Is this what a battle maniac is like?
He was speechless with delight.
During a break from watching the game, Lie Zhi took the time to gossip with him about Lie Zhao's achievements, talking about his genius, his unbeatable strength, and his stubbornness.
After listening to the whole thing, it was nothing more than an explanation of why Lie Zhao had taken the initiative to challenge him.
"I hope you don't mind. The captain rarely loses his composure. This time it was indeed due to special circumstances." Lie Zhi's attitude was very sincere.
Since he's already said that, even if Lezhi had any objections, he wouldn't say anything more, especially since he didn't object at all.
"You're exaggerating. I don't mind." This is a matter between the two of them, and it has nothing to do with anyone else.
"It's great that you think that way. No matter who asks, please keep it up." Lie Zhi's words were loaded with meaning, but the request he made was not unreasonable.
It wasn't until later, when he arrived at the Golden Armor Clan, that he understood Lie Zhi's intention in doing so.
However, for now, Lezhi simply followed his heart and nodded in agreement.
As dawn broke, the nocturnal creatures had already returned to their nests, and the diurnal creatures prepared to begin their daily routine.
The battle between Lei Xiu and Lie Zhao seems to be coming to an end.
Even under the sunlight, the light swirling around them was just as dazzling.
At the tip of the spear, a purple ball the size of a basketball had somehow formed. With a casual flick of his wrist, the ball hurtled towards Lie Zhao.
Lie Zhao raised his sword to parry, splitting the purple light sphere, but the next instant, the spear attack was already upon him.
"Ping... Clang... Sizzle..."
The sounds of metal clashing were particularly intense, interspersed with sounds of electric sparks and burning.
This time, the purple light finally broke through the golden armor's defenses, and the golden figure's light flickered after confronting the purple light.
Suddenly, the golden figure was violently thrown open.
The purple light followed closely behind, giving them no chance to catch their breath.
Lie Zhao finally managed to steady himself, and when he looked up, a long spear gleaming with purple light was right in front of him.
"you lose."
A cold voice came through, and Lie Zhao, panting, said with his eyelids half-closed, "I lost."
After a series of back-and-forth exchanges, the battle that had lasted all night came to a complete end.
…………
"Captain, are you sure you don't need us to carry it?"
The guards, who were already prepared for the rescue, cautiously inquired, fearing that their captain might be saving face and forcing himself to keep going even when he couldn't hold on any longer.
In reality, Lie Zhao was just putting on a brave face and firmly refused again.
"Alright, keep your formation in order, don't break it." Lie Zhi stepped forward to defuse the situation.
After the battle, the group had a quick breakfast and then began their return journey as planned.
Originally, Lie Zhi suggested resting for another day, but the two had just finished a high-intensity battle and immediately started traveling, fearing that they wouldn't be able to hold on.
But Lei Xiu and Lie Zhao refused in unison.
Lie Zhao simply didn't want her personal matters to affect her schedule.
Lei Xiu was the same, but he was more concerned about Le Zhi.
The original plan was to leave today. No matter what the reason, the plan had been made but could not be carried out. Zhizhi seemed fine on the surface, but she couldn't help feeling frustrated inside.
He had concealed it well before, and only Lei Xiu noticed his slight concern.
And he took it to heart with great seriousness.
“I’ve gone to see Lei Xiu and Le Zhi, and they’re fine too, so it shouldn’t take too long.”
According to their previous itinerary, they should be not far from their tribe's territory by now.
The bird and beast incident caused a two-day delay, but fortunately it was still within their jurisdiction, and the distance from the Five-Colored Stone Forest to their clan's territory was even closer.
With one addition and one subtraction, even if they are not in a hurry, they will not be delayed for too long.
As long as they don't travel day and night, it's almost like rest for them, so Lie Zhi isn't worried that Lie Zhao won't be able to keep going.
I should be fully recovered by tomorrow, after a good rest at the campsite during the day and tonight.
The same should be true for Lei Xiu's side.
Lie Zhi's estimate was roughly correct, but he didn't consider that Le Zhi would cheat.
"Here, eat up." I didn't sleep a wink last night. Although Maoqiu didn't sleep either, it stayed on Lezhi's head the whole time. So today, Maoqiu still asked to be the one to get around so that Lezhi could take a break.
Lezhi sat cross-legged on the back of the fluffy ball, with the water bubble wrapping the jelly frog behind him, just as comfortable as sitting in a beanbag chair. He was so relaxed that he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
Even though it was Lei Xiu who had just been in battle, he still had to fly on his own, and Mao Qiu still wouldn't give in, nor did Lei Xiu make any demands.
The battle was indeed quite taxing, but with the timely replenishment of breakfast, we should be able to get through the day's journey without any problems.
Although Lei Xiu didn't complain, Le Zhi noticed that his face looked a little pale. After thinking about it, he took advantage of the time to encourage the growth of the cocoa vines and obtain some chocolate fruits.
Coco usually keeps a low profile and seems to be in a weak position in the plant team of Lezhi Contract, but in fact, after being cultivated with living spring water, coupled with its own solid foundation, it is not much different from the vine and mushroom.
It never competes; it bears fruit only to replenish everyone's energy.
These fruits were previously reserved for patients; Lezhi rarely gave them to others, though they themselves ate quite a lot of them.
Lei Zhi gave it to him, and Lei Xiu accepted it.
Seeing that Lei Xiu's face became visibly rosy after eating two chocolate fruits, he nodded in satisfaction.
That's more like what a normal person should do.
One problem solved, but another remains.
The thought of having to curry favor with Lie Zhao sent shivers down Le Zhi's spine.
I have a feeling I'll be rejected with a righteous and firm stance!
He still didn't want to make a fool of himself. "Lei Xiu, there are a few more here, you give them to..." He glanced at him subtly, and Lei Xiu instantly understood what he meant.
"Oh my god, Captain Lie Zhao might feel embarrassed." After all, he just lost to him.
That's true, then who else could act as a messenger...?
Both pairs of eyes simultaneously looked at the Coke flying silently beside them.
Cola:"……?!"
